Check out what this Nuclear cheerleader has to say about Fukushima. By his measure, the melt downs at Fukushima and the obliteration of unit 4 are of no consequence because, no one died. As long as the nuclear industry has no interest in preserving human life, their technology has no place on earth. Does he not understand that the misery and death resulting from an atmospheric event can take decades to kill its victim? “Fukushima was nuclear power’s finest hour,” Waltar said, echoing Winston Churchill’s famous speech about Britain not giving up during World War Two. “There was a 9.0-magnitude earthquake and the reactor survived. Everything worked as engineered.” A 45-foot-high wall of water knocked out the diesel generator responsible for backup power to cool the reactors, causing three of the plant’s six reactors to melt down. But, most importantly, no one died, Waltar said.
